Skincare
Mistakes To Avoid In Summers
Well,
we know that we are following skincare that is recommended by dermatologists or
an expert but the problem does not lie in the steps of the skincare, the
problem is the way we follow them. We make a lot of skincare mistakes. Let
list them all one by one.
Wearing
sunscreen incorrectly or not wearing it at all
One of
the most common skincare mistakes we make is sunscreen. As the harmful UV rays
from the sun cause skin cancer, premature aging, hence sunscreen is a lot
important. All year round it should be worn every single day. It's not limited
to sunscreen application whereas the time and the SPF you are using. As if you
own a chemical sunscreen you need to apply it before makeup whereas if you are
having the physical sunscreen apply it on your makeup.
Not
Reapplying Sunscreen
Forgetting
to reapply the sunscreen is the second biggest summer skincare mistake people
make. As in the sun, the SPF Degrades and ceases to protect the UVA and UVB
Ray's skin damage. Hence make sure you apply the broad-spectrum sunscreen every
60 to 90 minutes while you are out in the sun to avoid getting burnt. If you
plan to be out in the sun for longer than 45 minutes, you can set a timer on
your phone. Also if you are enjoying the beach reapply the sunscreen whenever
you get out of the water.
Exfoliating
In The Morning
To keep
the skin healthy, smooth, dewy exfoliating is the best way. Also, the best time
to exfoliate the skin is at the night. Also, it is interesting to note that in
protecting skin from the harmful UV rays of the sun the layer of dead skin
cells acts as a protection. Also, try using the products AHA, BHA’s, retinol at
night as they make the skin exposed to sunburns and even more sensitive than
before.
Waxing
or shaving right before the beach
Also
when you wax or shave your body just before few hours of beach, it’s the other
summer mistake in skincare you make. Until the side effects kick in, most
people don’t even realize they’re doing anything wrong. Waxing and shaving and
hair removal just before the beach can lead to skin problems such as irritation
from sun, sand, and sunscreen. Hence try shaving your legs and skin before 24
to 48 hours of going to the beach. To avoid pigmentation issues try taking the
laser treatment before 10 days as you will have enough time to recover.
Not
Switching Out your cleanser
Well if
you are using the same cleanser that you use in winters then it is also your
one of the biggest mistake that you commit in the skincare. If you are getting
sun exposure and spending time outdoors, you need more frequent evening
exfoliation.
Conclusion
Hence
these are the top mistakes you should avoid in summers. Also never forget to
apply sunscreen whenever you head out. Also, sunscreen is equally important
regardless of the weather. Even if you are heading out in rainy weather wear
sunscreen then too. Also do not avoid using the moisturizer in the summer no
doubt it seems a little oily in summers as keeping the skin hydrated is a lot
essential.
